MEETINGS IN BALTIMORE AND VIRGINIA YEARLY MEETINGS

by Willna Ann Uebrick-Pacheli

This is an attempt to list all of the meetings which have existed since the early 17th century in Virginia Yearly Meeting and Baltimore Yearly Meeting (including Baltimore Yearly Meeting Hicksite, Baltimore Yearly Meeting Orthodox, Baltimore Yearly Meeting Wilburite, and Baltimore Yearly Meeting United).

The paper begins with a brief history of Baltimore Yearly Meeting and Virginia Yearly Meeting. Next is a list of all quarterly and half-yearly meetings. This is followed by a state by state list of subordinate meetings (consisting of the states of Delaware, District of Columbia, Indiana, Iowa, Maryland, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, and "state unknown" for those meetings which could not be more firmly identified as to location).

Finally is a list of all meetings. These meetings are numbered in alphabetical order and cross-references for variant spellings and other names are included in the numerical sequence. Each primary listing shows the name of the meeting, its location, superior meeting (if known), date established (which may be the date it became a monthly meeting or may be the date it was first mentioned as a meeting), date laid down (if applicable and known, "NA" indicates "not applicable" when the meeting is still in existence), contact person (usually the clerk of current meetings), records ("m/f" indicates records copied on microfilm at the Maryland Hall of Records but it is hoped that eventually this section will note the location of the meetings records if not held at the meeting itself), historical notes, and a "see also" if additional information may be found in the history of another meeting.

The author begs indulgence for errors and requests any additional information the reader may have to make this listing more complete.

[February 1989 Draft]

- 1 - TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES

I based this document on the 20 February 1989 draft of Willna Ann Uebrick-Pacheli's Meetings in Baltimore and Virginia Yearly Meetings. Though I had a different scope of research, I used her work as a source for most Maryland and Virginia entries in my work then or shortly later entitled Monthly Meetings in North America: An Index, with its First Formal Edition published in 1992, and now posted as the website www.QuakerMeetings.com Willna died a few months after sending me the draft, though I did not hear of her death for many months. Twenty years later, with new technology I learned how to scan her 1989 work to a PDF and then transfer it into a word-processing program for printing as a searchable PDF document.

Others will immediately note that such conversions introduce various errors. I did not have the sophistication to see that early in the process, so I needed to manually edit the Microsoft Word document converted from the scan to restore Willna's formatting. While restoring the original formatting, I incorporated the handwritten corrections and additions that Willna had made in 1989. I also corrected a handful of obvious typographical errors, but I did not attempt to correct all content errors. If I added something not implicit in Willna's 1989 draft, like a State that I knew, I noted "TCH" as the source.

My last change was to delete most blank lines. In 1989 Willna was still in the middle of compiling and correcting her list, so she put blank lines in most entries for such information as Records [location], Contact Person, and years the meeting was Established and Laid Down. When preparing this transcript for publication in portable document format, to reduce the size of the file I deleted many of the blank lines for contact person and records location. Willna did much helpful and some amazing work, but for health reasons she could not finish it and I do not see any reason to keep the blank lines.

Willna's family has now authorized the publication and circulation of this work. I disclaim any copyright in my work reflected herein.

Thomas C. Hill Charlottesville, VA September 2010 and April 2011 Baltimore Yearly Meeting (Baltimore Yearly Meeting Hicksite) (Baltimore Yearly Meeting Orthodox) (Baltimore Yearly Meeting Wilburite)

Baltimore Yearly Meeting was established under the name West River Yearly Meeting in April 1672. Its name was changed to Maryland Yearly Meeting in 1763, and in 1790 it was changed again to the Yearly Meeting of Friends held in Baltimore for the Western-shore of Maryland and the Adjacent Parts of Pennsylvania and Virginia. At a later date the name was changed to Baltimore Yearly Meeting. In 1790 an agreement was reached with Philadelphia Yearly Meeting (then called the Yearly Meeting of Pennsylvania) in which the meetings located on the Eastern Shore went to Philadelphia Yearly Meeting and Warrington Quarterly Meeting in Pennsylvania and Fairfax Quarterly Meeting in Virginia went to Baltimore Yearly Meeting. In 1813 meetings west of the Alleghany mountains separated to form Ohio Yearly Meeting. In 1828 the yearly meeting split into Baltimore Yearly Meeting Hicksite and Baltimore Yearly Meeting Orthodox, with about four-fifths joining the Hicksites and one-fifth joining the Orthodox. In 1843 when Virginia Yearly Meeting Orthodox was laid down, those Friends joined Baltimore Yearly Meeting Orthodox. In 1854 Friends from Little Britain and Nottingham Monthly Meetings Orthodox withdrew to join Wilburite Friends and form a third Baltimore Yearly Meeting which lasted until 1868 when it was laid down. In 1866 Prairie Grove Quarterly Meeting in Iowa joined Baltimore Yearly Meeting Hicksite and remained until 1875 when it helped form Illinois Yearly Meeting. Baltimore Yearly Meeting Hicksite and Baltimore Yearly Meeting Orthodox reunited in 1968, with the few pastoral meetings in southern Virginia leaving to join North Carolina Yearly Meeting.

- 2 - Virginia Yearly Meeting

The first general meeting in Virginia was held in 1673. Virginia Yearly Meeting was formally established ca. 1684. The first quarterly meeting was founded by George Fox in 1673 and consisted of Nansemond, Chuckatuck, Surry, and Pagan Creek Monthly Meetings. The second quarterly meeting established consisted of Curles, Cedar Creek, Upper Goose Creek, and Lower Goose Creek Monthly Meetings. In 1828 the entire yearly meeting became an Orthodox yearly meeting. Virginia Yearly Meeting was laid down in 1843 with the remaining meetings joining Baltimore Yearly Meeting Orthodox as Virginia Quarterly Meeting Orthodox.
